What if someone invented a really tiny camera with really huge features? Someone has. It's called the Canon ELPH 490Z, the world's smallest 4x power zoom camera. The 490Z combines the amazing technology of Advanced Photo System with advanced photographic capabilities and full automation. The first camera of its size to offer a high-performance lens with a wide-zoom ratio, the 490Z conceals its incredible 22.5-90mm 4x zoom lens behind a swing-open cover. The dramatic effect does not end there: all of this innovation comes wrapped in sleek styling and beautiful metallic finish of an ultra-compact, aluminum body that's really hard to miss.
